My mother is absolutely terrified that I might wind up getting stalked and molested by those strangers on the Internets, and my father is worried more about the huge gaping system security holes that AIM opens up. I can get by with ignoring them in the privacy of a dorm room, but at home, I have no privacy- my computer is in one of the most traveled areas of the house.

So I can either push my luck with AIM, or skip it for a month in the interest of family peace. I tend to choose the second.

I use Firefox, actually, and did so long before the whole "Wow, IE really does suck donkey balls" meme gained real brainshare. I'm to the point where I can barely use IE (named after what the first beta testers said about it: "AIEEEE") and actually have a fully functional distribution of Firefox on my flash drive (one of those little keychain thingamabobs that plugs into a USB port) carefully set to hit the disk as little as possible in case I find myself confronted with a comptuer that lacks it. (I also have the installer for the full version.)

Hey Kistaro, I got your voice mail VERY late on Friday Night, Saturday Morning. Sorry about the delay...Here is my schedule...

Saturday - Study my ass off for chemistrySunday - Study my ass off for chemistryMonday - Take Chem exam in the morning, then study for Logic (Hopefully ur free in the early afternoon), then take logic exam at nite.Tuesday - FreeWednesday - Skip town 'til the 1st (I really wish I would be here the whole time)

Saturday is bad for me, I apologize for that. I really hope you have free time on Monday. My exam gets out sometime between 9 30 and 10 00 AM. Logic starts at 6 00 pm! Yikes...

Btw, check out this MTG combo: Candelabra of Tawnos and Thawing Glaciers, Maze Of Ith, or Tolarian Academy. It's rather fun, though it made many TKE members want to eliminate me...

How about 1:00 PM later today (technically speaking, since it's past midnight and is therefore Monday already)? And where should I meet you? My parents can drop me off wherever, so if your dorm is best, that's just fine.
